About
Lisiane Pruinelli, PhD, MS, RN, FAMIA, Associate Professor, University of Minnesota School of Nursing
Mary O. Whipple, PhD, RN, PHN, Assistant Professor, University of Minnesota School of Nursing
Nursing often conjures up mental images of a caring relationship with a patient, but nursing practice is also grounded in enormous amounts of empirical evidence. University of Minnesota School of Nursing faculty will share unique perspectives of nursing and provide a broad range of examples from working one on one with patients in clinical laboratories and the community to extracting knowledge from data generated from millions of patients. The speakers will also discuss the pros and cons of these different approaches, the resulting potential for collaboration, and how the rapid growth of sensors, smart devices, and artificial intelligence is changing the way health care is delivered.
